Community
Building connections that make a difference
Giving back runs deep in our legacy. Founder Arthur Guinness supported many causes around Dublin to give back to the city that hosted the brewery. The Guinness Trust, founded in 1890 by Edward Cecil Guinness, helped to create housing opportunities in both Dublin and London. We’re carrying on this community spirit and are committed to working alongside our Covent Garden neighbours to make the area a space that thrives for everybody.
We’re a global brand with a local heartbeat and here to make a positive difference, so we’re asking local voices of Westminster to guide us – our job is to listen and act.
Got an idea? We’re all ears.
Getting to know our neighbours
Every month, we host a community meeting in our event space, The Guinness Vaults. They are a chance to come together and check in, ask any questions, and discuss the causes that really matter to the community.
To hear about when these meetings are taking place, as well as any community programming we are hosting on site, you can sign up to receive our community newsletter below.
